In a turn of events that could easily be scripted for a political drama series, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and his wife Angela Paxton have called it quits after 38 years of marriage. Angela filed for divorce citing “biblical grounds,” which, let’s be real, sounds like the kind of drama you’d find in a soap opera. She’s alleging infidelity and says they’ve been living apart since June 2024. You know it’s serious when you pull out the biblical argument!
Ken didn’t just take the news lying down. He hopped on social media to share his side, expressing pride in their family and asking everyone for privacy. But can you really keep things private when you’re a public figure? The couple has four children and five grandchildren, so it’s not just personal—it’s a family affair. Political ambitions aside, this divorce drama could have repercussions not just at home, but also in the Texas Senate race against long-time Republican John Cornyn.
Watching political figures navigate personal crises is like watching a train wreck—you can’t look away even when it’s uncomfortable. The question is, how will this impact Ken’s political future, especially with swirling rumors of infidelity? Do you think voters will be forgiving, or is this the end of the line for his campaign? Let’s chat about it!
